Baby Products Reviews of The First Years 5 in 1 Carry Me Near Sleep System, Cream
Customer Review: Dissapointingly Incomplete Package!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I'm 37 weeks pregnant, so hubby and I decided to start putting together the nursery items that we will be using with the baby during his first few months. We started with this cute and covenient sleep system, which we both loved when we saw it online and read the reviews. When we picked it up at the Union Square babies'r us store the box was taped on the side, so I asked if this was returned by another customer, I got a very big "NO" and a very convincing explanation that it just happened to crack open on that side as they were pulling it up for us, so they put tape on it. Anyhow, I accepted the explanation as a reasonable one... Now we open it up and we are missing several critical items, the instructional sheet (we could get it from the First Years website anyhow), we are also missing the storage basket, the long screws, the locking nuts, the wheels and mostly OUR PATIENCE! Word of advice, at the risk of seeming petty, never accept a taped up box no matter what, even if a factory sealed box happens to also miss parts, we will not risk it again. It's a hassle because now we have to waste time exchanging this item at the store.Customer Review: I loved it so much that I didn't want to move my son to a crib.

First of all it looks absolutely beautiful! I was searching for a bassinet for a few months before I had my son and this one was my final choice and I am very happy about it. I've seen many other bassinets and I simply didn't even feel comfortable putting my baby into those. We had our son in this bassinet all the way up until her gained 17 pounds. It was nice and convenient to have him right next to my bed and if he was sleeping I could just pick up the top part and move him with me. As a new mother I was getting up see if he is breathing every time I thought he was too quiet. So believe me, that nightlight was used ALL THE TIME. The running water and birds sounds were very soothing for me and the baby. I also loved the feature that you could turn the wheels and rock the bassinet. If you live in a little apartment every inch of space is valuable and the storage basket was very helpful too. The only thing I didn't use was the changing table. So, don't think that this is only for a little time and it costs too much money - it's worth every penny and you'll probably use it for about 4 months. Enjoy it the way we did :)Customer Review: Fancy options don't work very well. Not worth the money.

My daughter slept in this bassinet from birth to around 4 or 5 months. She never had a problem sleeping in it. There is a comfortable pad for her, a night light for checkups in the middle of the night, and a vibrator feature. That said, this thing annoyed my husband and I so much, we cursed it almost daily! The vibrator feature seemed to have a mind of its own - if it felt like it, it would go on, if not, we were out of luck. I put this item on our registry because I was looking forward to being able to carry around the top from room to room and to wheel it around when necessary. Well, the top weighs a ton when there's a sleeping baby in it, so I didn't even try to lift it as I was recovering from my c-section. And the wheels seem to only want to go forward and backward, so when I would move it around the room (which I had to do every day) I had to shove it with all of my might to turn it. All in all, it was way too much money for the limited use of all of the fancy options that you pay for. A stationary bassinet with no removable top would have been just as good, and a lot cheaper.Customer Review: A must have

I fell in love with this item when I saw the video. My sister in law gave it to us as a gift, and I have to say it is the most useful, must have , wonderful gift I have gotten. My baby loved it from the first day she came from the hospital. My husband and I could not imagine ourselves without it, it is:
easy to move around, it rocks and that is a huge help soothing our little 1 month old, it is simply beautiful, it looks good everywere we put it, it is not too hot eventhough is summer, it has a great space for putting stuff under it....and there is no mess, it is not heavy, it is easy to carry, it has great sounds for baby...ours loves the birds. I mean I have nothing negative to say....just maybe one of the song selections is not so great....other than that I have used the night light, and every other feature it has. Honestly every home should have one of these for their new baby. Go for it buy it....you will not regret it. And no I do not work for these people they just deserve the good word of mouth.
Customer Review: It's great!

The Carry-Me-Near 5-in-1 sleep system I bought for my new grandaughter and soon-to-be 3rd grandson is wonderful. When my grandaughter sleeps over, I have everything I need right THERE. She has her changing table (diapers, wipes, clothes, and ointments beneath and tucked in pockets on either end), her bassinette covers the changing table and becomes her carrier when it lifts right off. We're on our way... She can sleep or she can sit (I did order an "inclined to sleep" that fits nicely inside because she is so young. The sleeper vibrates, plays music, and has a light. I could go on and on....
The only negative I can come up with is the wheels. The system doesn't roll as easily (over carpet anyway) as it might. However, when the wheels are tucked in for the rocking feature, everything is marvelous again. (and it's not too heavy to pull where you need it.) There is a cover with three detachable toys to block light or drafts if needed...or it tucks away for an open view.
